Default Pics: 31's?

I was just wondering if anyone had a picture of their trucks on stock suspension with 31" tires? Thanks!

Yeah... 285/60/R18 = 31.5 Inches....







Not what you was expecting huh??? 31 inch tires arent big for these trucks.. I think you can fit 33s stock not sure though maybe might have to be leveled??

These are Hankook ATM LT265/75-16's in a load E rating. 35K miles on them and they barely look used. It's actually a 31.65" tire and is just around 10.5" wide...barely fits in the old snow chains I have for 31x10.5 Given my suspension is a little saggy from the weight of the front bumper and the rear is now too from the rear bumper (after the pic was taken).

well can a 99 lariat 4x4 fit 33's on stock suspension without real scrubbing problems? and if anyone has pics of their truck with stock suspension and 33's, that'd be great.

Haha. Made in Del Rio, TX. I've added a few things to it like the light mounts and the recovery rings. It can take a hit from almost any furry critter that weighs less than 250lbs going 60mph. This one has withstood 4 deer going 50, and an owl doing 75 mph before I went in and finally reinforced the mounts on the truck. The mounts on the bumper are 1/2" plate and the main body of the bumper is 8" channel. If your interested I made a matching rear out of 10" channel and 1/2" plate that has a pic on my profile. If your looking for one of these Texas style bumpers I would highly recommend the Frontier bumpers. They are lighter than Ranchhands but will take a hog hit going 80.

A true Road warrior bumper. I like that alot! If I lived where more critters crossed I would make a trip to Texas or ask you to send me the rough plans for your design. Right now I've been trying to lighten up the load and the road...(double joke there) for fuel economy. Our local gas was above the $4 dollar mark and is still at $3.92...

But is it what I love about this site, we can share our ideas and cool designs.
